Saw that. If I was backing McCain, I'd be pretty angry, too. At him. For being such a jerk.
From the article: "Supporters of McCain cite a dislike for Obama, dissatisfaction with the campaign's tone and frustration with how news organizations have treated their candidate."
I can buy that many do not like Obama, and I can certainly understand their dissatisfaction with the tone of McCain's campaign, but I still don't understand their position about how news organizations have treated McCain. I think there was a thread on this yesterday. Personally, I can't think of what McCain has done that's newsworthy and also positive. Is the media really biased against him? Or has he done little to generate news that is positive? At this point I can't quite tell, because, of course, I have my own bias.
